DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been reported in MoinMoin, which can be exploited
by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting attacks.
Input passed via the "refuri" node attribute to the reStructuredText
parser is not properly sanitised before being returned to the user.
This can be exploited to execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a
user's browser session in context of an affected web site.
Successful exploitation requires that reStructuredText has been set
as the parser.
The vulnerability is reported in version 1.9.3. Other versions may
also be affected.
SOLUTION:
Fixed in the Mercurial repository.
